Vegetable Dum Biryani in Oven

Vegetable Dum biryani is a famous spicy rice recipe from India. I am always comfortable in preparing vegetable biryani in pressure cooker or vegetable biryani in electric rice cooker. It makes the process easy and consumes less time. During week-ends, I prepare vegetable dum biryani. Although it involves lot of ingredients and lot of process, the taste is awesome. The taste of biryani prepared by all the three methods is unique in its own way.
